The purpose of this study was to examine how farmers in the Tirupati district of India perceived the services provided by RBKs. It was carried out 2023 - 2024 year using an Ex-Post-Facto research approach. The major restraint highlighted by farmers were scarcity of timely sourcing of quality inputs and services it can be owing to poor performance of RBK in the study area quite few number of farmers aware of the activities carried out by the RBK. Few farmers are aware of the benefits of organic certification and the availability of organic inputs such as vermicompost, neem oil, neem cake, natural farming products, IPM kits, biofertilizers, and bio-fungicides. The most likely explanation is that the Farmer Field School program, which was implemented by RBKs to raise agricultural income at lower costs by educating farmers about scientific methods, may have had the unintended consequence of lessening perception. The program also provided those farmers with organic inputs and IPM kits.
